not really.
i'm going to cut to the chase.
music.
we all love it, and i need to tell you what to love. because you know NOTHING.
here's my list of the top 11 spices that the colonel put into kfc.



# 11. The Bridal Shower - Work

i love post-pop. i love it more than TPL.



#10. Passion Pit - Chunk of Change (EP)

after following this band for some time previous to this release, getting this album is like getting a lock of hair from someone you are stalking. even if it's not great, it's everything you hoped for.



#9. Man Man - Rabbit Habits

still haven't seen them live, but this album makes me want to so much more. almost unbearably so.



#8. of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping

hate on it all you want, it's the true child of "Icons, Abstract Thee" and "Hissing Fauna."
hey, i hated it at first too.



#7. Starfucker - Starfucker

i'm not sure where this band came from, but it fit perfectly into the collection of new music i was listening to. it's refreshing to hear an album that hasn't been hyped.



#6. Vivian Girls - Vivian Girls

i hate female singers (it's a sexist thing) but i love this. that's gotta count for something.



#5. No Age - Nouns

i REALLY hope punk makes a comeback.



#4. Ponytail - Ice Cream Spiritual

just listen to the album. it cannot be explained.



#3. Spiritualized - Songs In A & E

i made love to this album.


#2. Deerhunter - Microcastle / Weird Era Continued

i liked this band until this album. now i love them.


#1. Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles

best new artist, best live act, hottest lead singer. obviously my top choice


most undeserving of any praise: coldplay - viva la vida

there you have it. all my spices.

the archives

i am now home, in west hartford ct, and have begun working for my father at Johnson Gage and Co.
they make things.
they have blueprints for all of these things.
i take the blueprints out of a drawer and scan them into a computer.
i do this a couple hundred times a day.

it's a pretty sweet job.
i don't have to do any heavy labor, and i get to listen to talk radio all day.

i really hope that next semester brings new things.
i'm going to join SUBOG, and maybe some other stuff.
if anyone knows of anything cool to do at uconn other than drink and smoke, let me know.
actually having money will also be a luxury that i'm not used to.
we'll see how things turn out.
obviously, leefers, i will keep you posted.

don't expect many posts until january 18th or so, because i will be home and working, and probably not doing anything interesting.

the party mix

i am blogging from a party.
in my own room.
that's how anti-social i am.

well, like you know, i am done with finals, and i am looking forward to break.
even if "break consists of working for my dad everyday, it's still a break from classes, which is good."

johnny wet just set the record for SNOW 118 40-CHUG.
the record: 2 minutes 9 seconds.
if you think you can beat it, come to 118 and try us.
we're some real bastards here.

anyway, i was just discouraged from blogging by maeve, so i think i'll just end this one here.


driiiiiiiiiiiiiiink uppppppppppppp naaaoiiii

haHA! Exams!

they're over.

now i am going home on saturday and am beginning work for my father on monday.
when people say, "there's no rest for the weary." they mean, "there's no rest for the restless."
if you have it, you don't need it.
if you don't have it, you could never get it.

i'm not sure how my grades will turn out. alot hinged on these exams, but i'm pretty confidant that i'll get off ac-pro sometime soon.

i'll be home all break, and willing to do pretty much anything, so try me.
i'm just working during the day (till 4) and after that, will attempt to enjoy this "break."

whatever.

with a sense of humour.

between finals break (a.k.a. affirmation of sanity)

long time no blog, eh leefers?

i've been wrapped up in the typical "wait...finals?" scenario.
that doesn't mean that i was not prepared. it just means that there is nothing you can do to prevent the initial shock of finals week. mine even came early in the form of a portfolio due last friday. i'm so lucky.

anyway, it's monday morning, and i just finished my first final, and it was easy enough, considering.
what i'm really worried about is the one i have this afternoon. i'm less prepared, and i'll be on my 26th hour without sleep. not good. stimulants needed.

i am also battling with the extreme temperatures that uconn is throwing at me. it's way below freezing outside, and at least 60 in my room, and i'm having a hard time finding the correct amount of layering that won't result in me getting hypothermia.


there is a light at the end of the tunnel, however.
i'll be done with finals wednesday afternoon, which is going to allow me to drink heavily straight through the weekend. and with the $$$ that i'm getting from my book buy-backs, i'll be straight for beer/cigs/food money. all important items for finals week. 
enough about that depressing shit.

i changed my relationship status on facebook to "in a relationship with jenny cerulean" in an attempt to bring the f-book stalkers out into the open.
it's working.
people are getting upset and confused, and i need that kind of dapraved entertainment this week.
also, i need to keep tabs on the people who are keeping tabs on me. it's only fair.

two of my roommates are graduating this semester.
it's a good thing for them, but leaving uconn life behind will no doubt be difficult.
i know i'm going to miss them.
the good news is that some old friends of wet and myself are moving in.
we'll call them fish and lumba-jack, respectively.
they're real cool guys, and if you stop by my room next semester, you'll surely get to meet them.

i think they're getting too exicted about the move, though.
they're moving in thier refridgerator this afternoon.
finals haven't really even started yet.
but alas, they are moving out of real shitholes.
and when you're coming from a pile of shit, even a new pile of shit can be exciting.
that's a life lesson, leefers. remember that one.

i'm working for the man over break, leefers.
and i mean my dad.
he's a cool guy, and he claims that the works easy, the co-workers are sleazy, and the pay is low...z.
whatever. a free job hookup with a free ride to work everyday AND no weekends?
sounds pretty damn good to me.
(also, i'm brown-bagging lunches. this is supposed to be cool, i think.)

well, good luck trying to get a hold of me for the next 3 days.
i'll be holed up here, studing my brains out.
in constant HOT/COLD.

if i don't make it, tell 'em i went out bitchin'
-Jizzy T

left 4 dead

i'll let the title speak for itself
kinda

so i got some work done today. trying to get ready for finals and all that.
cleaned my desk up a bit. got some
yeah, all those. (don't overdo it, leefers.)

i also voted for the 2008 Gummy Awards.
not like a give a fuck, or anything.
sometimes bands deserve awards, though.

and you know what, leefers?
it's hard for me to keep up with all my pals.
i can't call every person every day.
but i love surprises, so call me up if you're thinking about me. (unless you're masturbating to the thought of me [just kidding {no i'm not.}])

speaking of which...
my friend lipringgz stopped by my room today.
she had a new member of her crew.
he had a lipring, but his name wasn't lipringgz.
it was all good, but i wasn't paying attention and deleted a bunch of work on my computer.
i had to do it all over again.
it wasn't lipringgz fault, but i said, "i just deleted all my work. you have to leave now so i can do it...again."
everyone was sad.

i could really go for a sandwich right now.
i'll settle for a cigarette.

ok, so we decided to form a gang. my roommates and i.
like all good gangs, there's 5 members.
LOOKS - bustin cocko
MUSCLE - wetty wet
BRAINS - jason
WILDCARD - jizzy
USELESS FEMALE - any of their girlfriends
the point of this is so we all have roles.
looks uses his looks and charm to get shit done.
muscle intimidates and beats on shit to get shit done.
brains makes plans and acts wily to get shit done.
wildcard acts randomly to get shit done.
useless female...anyway, you get the point.
it's all for fun.
first plan: hustle the cafeteria.

let us serve ourselves
